If you fly west of Miami/Tamiami you'll end up in the Everglades in just a few minutes.I'm surprised there's a rural area inside a metropolis city limits.

Central Park in New York City!Yes, in which case you're in "South Florida" not in Miami. I've flown that area. I've flow just about every area in the US. I still have yet to see rural metropolis.

Evidently a couple trees makes things rural for you.

Not much "rural" about Central Park since they stopped grazing sheep there when it was turned into a planned park. And even the biggest open space there (other than the reservoir) would be a very challenging landing field for a fixed-wing... assuming you didn't hit a building on your way in.Central Park in New York City!
Depends on your definition of rural. If it means that you need open space large enough to land your plane, no it probably would not. If you define it by population density based on how many permanent residents per square mile than central park may fit that definition(assuming you do not count the homeless, and muggers). My point really was more tongue in cheek anyhow and just trying to say there are many cities with large areas that are undeveloped and can be considered "rural" like in a sense.Not much "rural" about Central Park since they stopped grazing sheep there when it was turned into a planned park.

"rural" vs. rural.
Oh, you have roads in your rural area! How quaint! Sheesh, we have to build'em if we want roads...
A PoA member alphadog flies out of a private airfield in Miami suburbs. The area is as agricultural as it gets, with patches of subdivisions.
P.S. I should've known
I think if there are no roads, I would go with "wilderness", rather than "rural".
